It does look good. Does it seem fairly rigid?  Also do you feel the mobile home anchors and lags will keep it secure in dense grade?  Trying to decide if concrete pad is necessary or not.

It's held down good and suppose withstand 140mph winds  Besides the hurricane straps there is a 4' rebar nail in each section.  I am going to add some cross braces at each corner for my own peace of mind. Concrete is personal choice, definitely not a must but a nice to have thing.  I think I'm going to pour two small pads under the tires to get them off the gravel.

Been trying to add gutter today but it keeps raining

Thank you for all the feedback Joe. I am going to start getting traction next week on what I will do. As long as concrete isn't stupid, I'll go that route, if not it will be dense grade. I have $10k budgeted for 100 ton of gravel/dense grade, concrete and the structure. We'll see what happens.

In going to build one hopefully next year. I think I can get the new camper in the barn where I kept the other one but not tried it yet. I will try when I winterize it and put it up for the winter.  I'm thinking of doing a 50x25. Will just buy 6x6 post and get some trusses And put some metal on the roof. With plans to make it a full enclosed shop when I get the $
